Mauricio Pochettino has named a changed side for tonight's Premier League trip to the Amex to take on Brighton as he keeps on eye on this weekend's FA Cup semifinal clash with Manchester United.

Tottenham come into the game holding a seven point lead over fifth-placed Chelsea and know that a win would bring them back level with Liverpool in the race for third.

Three points would also mathematically confirm Spurs will finish above Arsenal for the second season in a row as it would open up a 16-point gap over their north London rivals with just five games remaining.

After losing 3-1 at the weekend to Manchester City - who were themselves crowned Premier League champions after Man United's shock defeat to West Brom - Tottenham manager Pochettino has elected to rotate his team in anticipation of Saturday's Wembley showdown with United for a place in the FA Cup final.

Toby Alderweireld

As expected, Toby Alderweireld has been recalled to the defence where he joins Jan Vertonghen, Ben Davies and Serge Aurier as Spurs make six changes from the weekend.

In the midfield, Victor Wanyama partners Moussa Sissoko while Christian Eriksen, Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura provide the support for Harry Kane.
